In Greek mythology, Pandora’s box is a representation of the human condition. It is filled with all the evils and miseries of the world, things that make human life difficult and p ainful. When the box is opened these hardships are unleashed upon humanity. Before the box was opened people lived in a world free from suffering. They had no concept of sickness, death, or sorrow. But once the box was opened, these afflictions became an inescapable part of human existence. In this sense, the box symbolizes knowledge and the consequences that come with it. Just as Pandora’s curiosity led her to open the box, a desire for knowledge can sometimes lead us to discover things we might wish we hadn’t. Once a piece of knowledge is gained, it can’t be forgotten, just as the evils could not be put back in the box. This artwork is a digital download only no product will be sent to you.
